Overview
The purpose of Gateway Baptist Academy is to educate and train the whole student: spiritually, intellectually, physically, and socially.
Because the Lord requires a vessel unto honor, guidelines for personal habits, definite dress codes, and proper leisure time activities are provided.
The Bible is not substituted for any academic subject, but it is integrated into the total educational program.
The Bible is taught so that the student will develop sound values that will govern every step of his life.
Gateway Baptist Academy desires to send out into the world young people who will be lights in this night of spiritual darkness.
OUR MISSION: TO PARTNER WITH PARENTS TO PREPARE THE NEXT GENERATION TO IMPACT THE WORLD FOR CHRIST. When you walk onto the Gilbert Christian Schools (GCS) campus, you will notice quality interactions occurring between students, parents, and staff where individuals desire to glorify and honor God in everything they do.
We have well-equipped classrooms overlooking carefully-maintained school grounds. We have small class sizes which foster individualized instruction and accelerated learning where students are receiving individual attention from caring, godly men and women who take pride in equipping their students both academically and spiritually.
